Udaan
i've been jumping
from string to string.
i've bled myself dry
from the soles of my feet.
why can't you hear the music?
is it solely because you have turned deaf?
or that you don't care about my melody?
please close your eyes and see my dreams
for it's been ages since i last fell asleep.
you ask me to run back home,
then at least tell me where that is.
i understand that you're scared.
please know that i am too.
it's not that difficult,
it's not that far.
walk along with me,
my legs are numb but i am willing to do it.
you even have wings, so why are you refusing?
one day, the entire world will see my films.
please, let me hold the camera before you kill me.
the constellations are fake,
i can write my own fate.
you can read my palms,
but why is to so hard to hold my hands?
please, just once.
see what i see.
every damn time, this makes me cry. majaa aagaya, motwane saab. watched this today with someone special.(hehe)
